[00:44:13] so cute [01:42:55] <__starcraft__> [1/2] I am using Citzen [01:42:56] <__starcraft__> [2/2] How do I add a background image? [02:01:18] I think MH should provide for some notices in case a skin is going to be updated. [02:03:35] Not nearly that simple [02:03:52] Since all our skins are maintained by third parties [02:04:04] I have been workshopping something to do that [02:04:23] But getting it working will require the assistance of community members [02:04:56] [1/2] SCTools has always been pushy for modern technologies. [02:04:56] [2/2] They've even updated their templates to use `
` which isn't supported by the MW parser without an extension (which you can't enable Miraheze directly) [02:05:34] Templates on the skin or wiki( [02:06:01] On their wiki [02:06:20] Surprised it hasn’t been added to core [02:06:22] hm [02:06:59] There's been quite some beef about it, the debate went on for more than 10 years afaik [02:07:45] The `
` tag, that is. [02:09:03] the tag has been around for 10 years and we’re still arguing [02:09:07] I'm having trouble getting Wiki-Bot set up in my server. Is this the right place to ask for help on it? [02:09:41] Not reaaaally [02:09:54] If it’s a Miraheze issue we can try to helo [02:09:59] @Wiki-Bot [02:10:16] https://discord.gg/v77RTk5 is probably the olace to ask [02:11:05] Thank you [02:12:57] [1/2] I did make an issue on Phorge regarding that extension: https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org/T13080 [02:12:57] [2/2] Not really a high priority thing, it's relatively easy to port the old one to use the new skin, so I wouldn't be surprised if it goes stale until some consensus is reached in MW core :pupCoffeeMH: [02:55:06] tool to fix citizen's css variable name changes https://dgox.uk/citizen-replace/ [06:00:39] yep, may be great for their wiki but unfortunately it's making using their templates and modules a lot harder for other wikis [06:08:43] at this point it would be easier to make a fork [07:16:29] There's a task to enable that, and I think the only reason it isn't yet is because WM hasn't enabled it yet. [07:16:57] Yeah, that ticket. [08:10:36] [1/3] Sorry guys! I missed the Citizen updated, and just see my capoeirawiki colors and border-radius are all wrong. [08:10:37] [2/3] Do we have an official guide what to do to make it back? And how to avoid this in the future? [08:10:37] [3/3] cc @yonic_soseki [08:15:02] [1/3] you gotta read this and fix it yourself [08:15:03] [2/3] [08:15:03] [3/3] you now have to add oklch and hsl variables if youre changing color primary progressive colors [08:18:38] thanks! I see @dgox2 mentioned [this tool](https://dgox.uk/citizen-replace/), will try it as well. [08:19:58] And we are sure Miraheze won't revert to stable release and use 3.0.0-beta for Citizen? [08:20:14] not quite sure? you could ask them [08:20:33] [1/2] got this in case they revert 💪 [08:20:34] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1353644647334805567/image0.jpg?ex=67e26751&is=67e115d1&hm=db7ac5f272a2043fbcce17847a9b8dfc45b5e115cf01e053be654879947a3c73& [08:57:29] The tool's really nice, it even replaces the variables that were previously deprecated but the PR refuses to specify which (for example `--font-weight-semibold`, that one's probably used quite a lot) [09:16:40] [1/2] https://dev.miraheze.org/wiki/Miraheze_Developers_Wiki:Community_portal#Citizen_3.0.0-beta_class_updates [09:16:41] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1353658769560830044/image.png?ex=67e27478&is=67e122f8&hm=a88dc1fb40620fa57b95af2ed926e55489e5a556455f5871511c3e364d794ebf& [09:17:03] As reference in the Community Portal on DEV [09:44:33] hello [11:18:48] i’m not really sure why they changed that because i’ve never seen it called semi bold as opposed to semibold [11:27:17] if you want the background just for Citizen go to MediaWiki:Citizen.css [11:54:04] The citizen skin the most unreliable skin ever, i don't get why a skin needs so many changes [12:08:14] [1/2] is there any way to make a table like this?

It's easy enough [12:37:45] yeah, better to stay with tables, will be easier to maintain, then floating divs and grids. [12:37:59] yeah [12:38:33] although be prepared for weirdness on mobile [12:38:34] It's how we always did it at the beginning of Wikipedia [12:38:50] True. Mobile doesn't like tables [13:06:06] I asked yesterday about images in Discord embeds, it seems to work with JPGs but not SVGs, is there a way to do this? [13:12:30] svgs don’t work because they have the potential for security exploits iirc? they’re also a vector format and not a raster format so that likely factors in [13:15:42] could be completely wrong here but oh well [14:04:51] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/407537962553966603/1353258567548928032 can anyone help with dis [14:18:57] Nope, it just mediawiki being dum dum [14:19:27] aren’t they talking about images embedding in discord though [14:19:38] oh [14:19:39] when you send an svg in discord it just becomes code [14:20:47] About discord, I have no idea. [14:21:09] svg is xml if I'm correct [14:24:48] We still doing this? [14:32:53] can i upload an online image to a wiki without having to download it to my computer first? [14:32:59] and if so how do i do that? [14:33:17] you can upload via url [14:34:57] there's a setting for thag [14:35:03] where's the setting? [14:35:37] in your admin sidebar, manage this wiki's additional settings, media tab iirc [14:36:07] ok got it [14:38:09] once i enable that setting how do i do it? i turned on the textbox in special:upload too but its not showing up [14:39:29] just keep refreshing [14:39:44] i think theres two checkboxes to enable? [14:41:06] [1/2] yeah i checked these two [14:41:06] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1353740412422066327/image.png?ex=67e2c081&is=67e16f01&hm=e189604fd2695e45c0839867563912bf58c9f41ff908a15ae21a5961a5c50359& [14:41:34] do i just have to wait? [14:43:13] yeah [14:55:46] ok it showed up [14:55:47] ty! [14:55:52] time to disappear again [15:36:19] By the way can we put a custom announcement for our wiki?

I was going to create a migration guide with the 3.0.0 update but I don't have the time to do it yet. [16:07:25] [3/5] > Since 3.0.0 is a major release, we hard-deprecated some of the variables that are previously soft-deprecated. That's why some of CSS variables no longer work. [16:07:25] [4/5] > The tools look fine to me. Alternatively, you can use wiki edit bot tools such as AutoWikiBrowser to mass replace the deprecated variables in your TemplateStyles pages. You can see a list of deprecated variables here: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/524b174ab6c0fd6a640894f2f7e9adb740917b0f/resources/skins.citizen.styles/tokens. [16:07:25] [5/5] less#L290 [18:12:14] Hmm, is there a way to have a JPG/PNG file preview? It feels like that would get around the issue [18:15:40] it shouldn't be a problem I think, because svg is often used for logo and renders fine [18:15:45] lemme test [18:15:51] [[Infoboxes]] [18:15:52] [18:15:59] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Infoboxes [18:16:04] hmm [18:16:20] unless logo fallback isn't set on Meta [18:20:03] btw when is this going thru??? it appears it's still up [18:23:48] [1/2] how do i get rid of the line on the topbar with the timeless skin [18:23:49] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1353796460545703946/Screenshot_2025-03-24_142322.png?ex=67e2f4b4&is=67e1a334&hm=af301b65f83ee1d4014ad403352fe98797c8b5ff46aff6d8ceeaa316f41e4d65& [18:39:45] [1/2] the red-blue-green line?

Breaking changes are introduced with 3.0 because it is a major version, and we only release major versions when there's a MW LTS update (e.g. 1.43) [19:08:30] yeah thats fair i realised it after sending [19:08:39] still odd for codex anyway [19:08:47] You can't do both [19:08:56] fucked up [19:09:06] cause it said something about a fallback [19:09:28] @superkirbylover the easiest way to set things up is to use Cloudflare's free plan for DNS [19:09:45] Yeah but I don't have an opinion on that. Staying in sync with Codex improves the maintainability of the skin while making the skin more readable for other MW devs and users [19:13:43] do you know if there's a neat little walkthrough for that or naur, never used cloudflare before [19:14:20] Sign up, you can sign in with Google and it'll talk you through adding the domain bit [19:14:31] ye alrighty [19:14:34] You can open a #support thread if you get stuck and I'll talk you through it [19:14:40] awesome :> thank you [19:14:52] And you can ping me when you're done to the magic on our side [19:15:32] [1/2] I don't disagree with that. Most skins are either abandoned or on life support, so there aren't a lot of changes going on. [19:15:32] [2/2] Citizen is in active development, so does design trends and web standards. In order to keep up and keep iterating, changes are being made continuously, and we avoid breaking changes as much as possible until a major version release (e.g. every 2 year with MW LTS) [19:25:11] [1/2] is there a way to add more of these tabs to the top bar of a page?
